Cross Country Season Starts With Annual Alumni Run

Thirty-three Wabash alumni and friends of the Little Giant cross country team joined the 2009 squad for the annual Charlie Finch ’51 Alumni Run on campus Saturday morning.

The day started with the alums swapping stories and warming up for the big event. After the customary cheer of "We Passed Comps!" by the veterans, the four-mile race began. At the end of the event, the varsity secured a 20-40 victory by taking five of the top-seven places. The afternoon concluded with a lunch in Chadwick Court.
